TEST WEDNESDAY: Use this time to finish studying. I will be in school tomorrow and will be available after school on Tuesday (as well as period 4 and 8) if you have questions. You can email me as well.
Extra credit assignment (if you have time and interest): Read the article "The Radicalism of the American Revolution" by historian Gordon Wood and complete the reading comprehension questions (they are multiple choice) and chart on the last few pages of the document. You don't have to do the essay question at the end, but it's worth thinking about.
Use class time to access the red textbook A People & A Nation for this assignment. If you are not in class, or need another source to finish it, use USHistory.org, chapter 17c ("The First Adminstration") to Chapter 20a ("The Election of 1800").
